regarding the talking point "alternative for wechat": I believe the Chinese government doesn't want a solution to exist that's not under their control. That's the reason why they banned Monal from the appstore as soon as they deemed it too popular.
And I'm sure they will ban quicksy as well and only did not yet, because its user base is really small.
